Hello Everybody! How's it going out there? This past week a lot has happened, I moved areas, got a new companion, and cut open my hand and have an eye infection haha.
I'm now serving in Buota which is in south Tarawa (the main part of Kiribati) and it is pretty awesome. We can bike our whole area in about 8 minutes so that's a change but there are lot of people. My new companion is Elder Aiu from Hawaii. He's way awesome and is one transfer younger than me. All I can say is this is going to be a fun transfer. It has a lot more work than my last area because 1 there are a lot more people and 2 there are just a lot more people here haha. From Wednesday to Saturday we have had 12 lessons and have gotten 2 baptismal dates. So the work here is awesome but as a result very tiring haha.
Friday night was very awesome. I had just got done showering and was putting on my clothes when all the sudden Boom cut open hand. I totally forgot that there was a metal fan about a foot and a half above my head so my hand went up perfectly fine and it came down bleeding. Sister Kirk the Mission nurse came over cleaned it and closed it up. But I woke up the next morning with an infected/swollen hand because no matter what you do in this country everything will get infected. I also got an eye infection so double the fun haha.
Well that's pretty much all that has happened this week. Area and companion are awesome and so is the mission. Love you all

| side note Mom: Hunter shook someones hand while he was talking to us and I saw his arm!!! He told us about his hand and his eye but didn't mention his arm so I asked him to show me his arm and he didn't seem to think the way it looks was a big deal because this is normal for Kiribati!!! |
